"I visited the shop on Saturday after viewing your website. I have to say it was well worth the three hour drive from Cumbria. The goods and the service were EXCELLENT - top marks. I have found a treasure trove of quality clothing in the Scottish Borders."
Paul Smith

Service rating : Fast delivery and the leather treatment was a nice touch.Product : Love these boots. I wear them every day till they fall apart and then buy a new pair. This pair took a little longer to get comfortable. Either my feet have got wider or they've changed the design slightly; they seem sturdier. I'll be ordering the wider fitting next time.

"What a fantastic service. Thank you for exchanging my wife's coat for a different colour so promptly. Everything comes so beautifully wrapped, you can tell it's been done with great care. I shall certainly be buying from your website again."John Wickman

"Thank you very much for such a great service. It's great to see traditional values still in practice. I'll be sure to shop from you again in the future."
Joe Leeming

"Karen - I have heard from my family the parcel arrived this morning and I cannot thank you enough for your incredible efforts! I really really appreciate this - if only more sellers had such a committed and responsible approach to customer satisfaction."Annabel Payne
